TORONTO -- Orioles first baseman Chris Davis tied the franchise record for homers in a season with his 50th home run on Friday night. His next home run will pass with Brady Anderson's team mark set in 1996.

while 50 is a nice round number, here are some other key ones that put Davis' season in context:

3Players in major league history who have recorded 50 homers and 40 doubles in the same season. Davis (50 HR/40 2B) joins Babe Ruth, who hit 59 homers and 44 doubles in 1921 and Albert Belle, who hit 50 homers and 52 doubles in 1995.

6.5 Davis’ WAR (Wins Above Replacement) metric, which doesn’t even lead the Orioles. Manny Machado has a 6.6 WAR.

16Homers Davis has hit against Toronto since the beginning of the 2012 season, most of any player in that span. His seven homers against the Blue Jays this season ties teammate Adam Jones for the most of any Toronto opponent.
